SAFETY PRECAUTION 

Warning: 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, 

don’t open the cabinet. Refer servicing 

to qualifi ed personnel only. 

PAG. 2 

The exclamation point 

within an equilateral 

triangle is intended 

to alert the user to 

important operating and 

maintenance (servicing). 

Please read the manual carefully before installing the receiver. 

Caution: Never open the device by yourself. Dangerously high voltages are present inside the unit. Refer 

servicing to qualifi ed staff only. 

When installing the receiver, always unplug the receiver from the mains voltage. 

Unplug the receiver from the mains in case of long periods without operating the receiver (for example, 

during holidays!). 

To prevent shock hazard, do not touch the power plug with wet hands. 

Always unplug the receiver before cleaning it or working on the connections. 

Do not install the receiver close to strong heat sources, and ensure a good aeration if you plan to install 

the receiver in a small cabinet. 

Before you start operating the receiver, make sure that the satellite antenna is properly built up, optimally 

connected and aligned. 

The correct place to install the receiver is, of course, near your TV set and any other A/V signal sources 

(DVD, VCR, CD, game console, etc.). 

Choose a stable support, in which you can easily lay the necessary connecting cables without stumblingdanger. 

The receiver should be installed near an easily accessible outlet. 

Do not install the receiver in a place where it can be reached by liquid spills. 

Do not put any heavy objects as, for example, a TV-device over the receiver; the receiver could be 

damaged. 

DO NOT INSTALL THE RECEIVER: 

- On an unstable surface 

- Subject to direct sunlight 

- In high humidity environment 

- Outside the receiver’s temperature range (+5°...+40°C) 

If the receiver is subject to severe temperature changes, it can suffer from water condensation inside. 

Switch off the receiver in these cases for at least 2 hours before resuming operation.

QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE 


Follow next steps for the correct installation of this receiver. 

STEP 1: CONNECTIONS 

The coaxial cable, with satellite signal, must be connected to the “IF IN” connector. The “TV SCART” 

connector must be connected to the TV set. 

The receiver also includes an UHF modulator, allowing connecting a TV set or VCR. However the picture 

quality will be a little poorer. The modulator has an antenna input and the output range is from channel 

21 to 69. This will allow you to mix the existing antenna signals with the output channel generated by 

the receiver. 

The modulator output is factory preset to channel 38. You can change the output channel in the TV 

system menu that you can fi nd in System Setup menu. 

You will also have to tune your TV set accordingly, in order to receive the picture from the receiver. 

Depending on the type of installation, the receiver should be connected and confi gured following next 

examples.

STEP 2: BASIC CONFIGURATION OF THE 

RECEIVER 

The receiver includes an installation assistant (Quick Setup) 

that will help you to setup the different parameters. 

When the receiver is turned on at fi rst time (using the button at 

the rear panel of the receiver), the next menu is shown on the 

TV (Image 1): 

The receiver is programmed with all the channels of Astra (at 

position 1 of the DISEqC), Hotbird (at position 2 of the DISEqC), 

Hispasat (at position 3 of the DISEqC) and Turksat (at position 

4 of the DISEqC). If your installation is different to this case, 

please follow installation steps to search the channels. 

In order to move through the different options of this menu, 

please use the keys [ ] of your remote control. If a “Short 

circuit on the LNB” message is shown on the TV, please check 

the connections before continuing the installation. 

Language: press [ ] to select languages. The selection 

of languages include: English, German, French, Spanish, 

Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Polish, Russian, Danish, Greek, 

Hungarian, Arabic, Farsi. 

First Audio: Some channels offer more than one audio language. 

This function allows you to set the preferred audio language for 

those channels using [ ]. If a channel offers the same 

audio language as the “First Audio” you set the system will play 

this audio language as default. If the channel does not offer 

this audio language then the system will compare the offered 

languages with the second audio language. The selections of 

audio languages include: English, German, French, Spanish, 



Second Audio: If the channel has no audio language that 

corresponds with “First Audio” but with “Second Audio” the 

system will play the second audio language as default. If no 

audio language corresponds with the “Second Audio” then the 

default language of the current channel will be played instead. 

The selections of audio languages include: English, German, 

French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Polish, Russian, 

Danish, Greek, Hungarian, Arabic, Farsi. 

LNB Power: Here you can set the power output to the LNB. If 

your receiver is connected to the LNB directly then you need to 

set the LNB Power to “On”. If your receiver is connected to a 

multi switch (SMATV signal distribution system) then it may be 

that you don’t need to provide the power to the LNB. But since 

this is depending on the kind of installed distribution system we 

recommend you to contact your installer or to refer to the user

? FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION 

Q: The power of my STB is on and it is running in TV mode but 

the TV screen shows nothing: 

A: Make sure the TV set has been set to the correct video input 

(not the TV channels). For example, if you have connected the 

STB to the Video1 input of the TV set, then you need to select 

the corresponding Input on the TV. Mostly it is done with the AV 

button of the TVs remote control unit. 

Q: My STB is running in TV mode but the TV screen shows 

nothing except one ball and “No Signal”. 

A: That means the channel you selected has no signal. This can 

be caused by several reasons:

your dish is pointing. Select another channel. 

2. The signal of current TV channel is too weak. You can 

try to change to other channels with a stronger signal. If the 

problems still exist, please consult your local dealer or installer 

for technical service. 

3. You selected the wrong LNB type in the installation menu or 

your DiSEqC switch confi guration is not correct.

this is depending on the kind of installed distribution system we 

recommend you to contact your installer or to refer to the user
